any other swing state. according to "the washington post," either the president or vice president biden pops up in ohio every three weeks and usually with good financial news for the state. in march ohio got a federal grant for new manufacturing center, it was the first awarded and the administration awarded ohio about $125 million in tax credits to promote clean energy. officials say sometimes good policies also end up being good politics. mitt romney also in ohio wrapping up the three-day romney/ryan bus tour there. while "the new york times" reports that the two plan to campaign more together and they did so yesterday. ryan did the first day of the tour alone and romney will lobby himself today as his running mate moves on to colorado. the latest "washington post" poll has romney down by 8 in ohio but as stephanie mentioned his campaign says it is not worried because its own internal polls are much more favorable however the campaign is refusing to release any specifics on those super secret magic ohio polls. naturally, bloomberg is polling

likely voters and finds that 49% see mitt romney unfavorably. this is the highest unfavorable in the month of september for a presidential challenger in 30 years. we're back with more show after the break. stay with us. on current tv. >>i feel like i don't even know you. >>just stay on your side of the screen, okay? >>brought to you by geico. 15 minutes could save 15% or more on car insurance. visit geico.com for a free rate quote.

vote in a federal election. because that's how -- if a state wants to say for governor of the state of illinois, you have to do this and -- >> stephanie: jim, same thing we talk about every time. turnout, turnout turnout. polls working the way they are. it has to be tough to do that. that would be a revolution. mitt romney won in a landslide. >> that's what happened in 2004. everyone said oh oh well. >> but it was way narrower. that's why i think the concern is actually the flipping will go on in the congress. because they can -- because congressional seats won't have as much attention. they'll go well -- >> stephanie: for more obstructionist. angela in illinois. angela in minnesota. >> caller: my turn. hi stephanie. thanks for being on. i mean npr the other radio stations won't let me on. here's the deal. everybody needs to vote. make them give you a provisional ballot if they have to because the provisional ballot can no

longer be thrown away. they have to be counted. even if you have the i.d. from 2008, i don't care what you have, go to the voting polls and vote vote, vote because they must give you that provisional ballot and the caller before me, the guy that was saying it is a federal issue he's right. they must give you a provisional ballot. go go, go! >> stephanie: wow, you are! you're scrappy. i love it. i would love it if all of the voter suppression stuff gives us an unprecedented turnout and an unprecedented landslide. all of the super pac money republicans would be like oh!

top. >> stephanie: that's like their strategy. how do we stop people from voting? >> i met with ten journalists from like -- latino papers and you know, both in the states and in south america yesterday. and that was a big concern of theirs. and it was amazing how they handled the univision thing because i made my joke about how i don't think he wore -- i think he slammed his face in cumin because then he would get the color benefit and a smell they're used to. >> stephanie: lorain. >> tacos and that kind of stuff. >> stephanie: hi, lorain, welcome. >> caller: bear with me. i have a disability that affects my speech. i love you all. >> thanks. >> caller: my comment is over the outrage over the nfl call and on the same day there was an announcement that ten million latino votes are
